OC-111. (Cancelled) Pista, HA5AO, reports on his Web page:
"Unfortunately, we have had to cancel this trip, due to the
circumstances and considerations, as follows --
We could find transportation to the island early in the
morning. However, we would have to spend the night there,
as the motorboat can only come back for us on the next after-
noon. We would have to spend the night there, but we could
not find any solution to be safe there. We could not take the
risk to have an overnight alone on those remote islands. Our
safety is the first. Sorry about it, but we have had to make
this decision. We can only hope your understanding." For more
